contents We derive a few extended versions of the Kraft inequality for lossy compression, which pave the way to the derivation of several refinements and extensions of the well known Shannon lower bound in a variety of instances of rate-distortion coding. These refinements and extensions include sharper bounds for one-to-one codes and $D$-semifaithful codes, a Shannon lower bound for distortion measures based on sliding-window functions, and an individual-sequence counterpart of the Shannon lower bound.
